ORIGIN

This 1978 Chevrolet Corvette is finished in Dark Brown Metallic over a brown leather interior. A numbers-matching 350ci V8 and 4-speed manual transmission are equipped, and modifications performed in the late 1990s include an upgraded camshaft, 327 oil pump, push-rods, and roller tips. This example features factory air conditioning, and recent maintenance included refreshing the braking and suspension systems. Recently acquired from its second owner, this C3 Corvette is offered by the selling dealer with an owner’s manual, a pair of T-top glass panels, and a clean Ohio title.

The fiberglass bodywork is said to have been repainted in its factory Dark Brown Metallic (69) in the early 2000s. Numerous gallery photos below highlight the bumpers, emblems, and weather stripping.

A brief walk-around video showing the body panels up-close can be seen above.

Recent maintenance included servicing the emergency brake, as well as replacing the brake calipers, hoses, lines, shocks, end links, and leaf springs. Factory 15″ wheels are fitted with older 255/60 Goodyear Eagle tires. The seller indicates the original LOF glass remains intact.

The cabin is trimmed in brown leather (692). Per the seller, newer front and rear carpets are fitted, along with a factory replacement steering wheel and Nakamichi CD-player in place of the original radio.

The odometer currently displays 5,288 miles, and is believed to have rolled over once.

Photos of the stampings for the numbers matching 350ci V8 and 4-speed manual gearbox are shown in the gallery. Modifications reportedly performed in 1993 included an upgraded camshaft, 327 oil pump, push rods, and roller tips. The seller notes the factory A/C components remain in place.

Several photos of the underbody are viewable in the gallery and the seller notes a stock-style exhaust and catalytic converter remain fitted. A video of the seller demonstrating accessories, as well as a short test drive, can be seen below.
